We had lobsters...great value. Not as thrilled with the sides, but the fresh seafood more than made up for it. Had a very friendly waitress. Highly recommend it.

Loved the atmosphere, with it's sea side Maine lobster shack flare. Food was great you have to try the homemade onion rings!! Lobster and crabmeat rolls were very tasty and you should not walk away hungry, large portions! Gotta try this one if you are in the area!!

Love the location of this charming eatery! Harbor Road is a causeway across the marshes that lead to to beach in Wells. But do not confuse it with Mile Rd. which has similar places. Fisherman's Catch is the perfect seaside mix of great fried seafood and funky atmosphere. The screened -in dining room allows for bird watching from every table... More

Nothing fancy, my kind of dining out while on vacation. Paper towel hangs on rolls above your head at the tables. Food is served on paper and plastic. Friendly service. Great location down Harbor Road. A highlight of our vacation.

Yum! Great fried seafood and plenty of it! Also have fresh lobsters but we had fried oyster and clams and every bite was better the the last. Double order of the house made coleslaw and it was great. Prices cannot be beat. Location is ideal. I can understand why there are lines bt thankfully when we went on a Monday... More

Yes! The quintessential seafood shack in Maine. Recommended by local and I am glad I listened. I focused solely on the Captains Feast -- large portion for 2 of delicious tender and fresh morsels of fried (not greasy) Haddock, scallops, shrimp and clams served with fries, coleslaw and rolls. I'm ready for another! A fellow dinner mate enjoyed their lobster... More

Nothing super fancy here, but expect a filling meal and a family atmosphere with pleasant waiters. Was out and about looking for a Seafood restaurant and made a turn on Rt1 heading towards the water when I ran across this place with a large showing of cars in the lot which can tell you something. The prices on the menu... More

So so good. The clam chowder was amazing, the fried clams and fried scallops were incredible. We got the lobster roll, which was ok. The haddock and lobster tacos were delicious. This place is an absolute must for no fuss yummy seafood. Apparently in the summer this place gets packed with waits up to 2 hrs. We came in May... More

We shared a Fisherman's Catch for two. It had fried clams, scallops, haddock and shrimp and french fries. Additionally nice fresh rolls. Huge amount of food but it was delicious, except for the fried clams which were too big for our liking. The restaurant is more rustic with picnic tables but the views of the marsh was lovely. The staff... More

Enjoyed a huge stack of perfectly prepared fried clams. French fries on bottom, but more clams then fries! Great value at $14.99. I think these might beat Mike's Clam Shack. Not much to look at and limited seating, take out available. As a long time resident, recommend.
